On
January
26,
1950,
the
Constitution
of
India
came
into
effect
throughout
the
whole
nation.
And
as
we
gear
up
to
celebrate
the
72nd
Republic
Day
on
January
26,
2021,
Zee
TV’s
actors
share
their
thoughts
about
the
rights
and
duties
of
a
responsible
citizen
and
share
some
of
their
best
memories
of
celebrating
Republic
day
as
kids.
Neha
Marda
who
plays
Shubhra
in
Kyun
Rishton
Mein
Katti
Batti
said,
“The
one
fundamental
right
that
I
take
very
seriously
is
the
right
to
equality
by
supporting
my
family
and
being
independent
myself.
In
spite
of
being
a
part
of
a
conservative
family,
I
have
equal
rights
in
every
family
decision
taken
in
the
house.
Also,
the
fundamental
duty
that
I
think
everyone
should
take
seriously
is
towards
the
environment/nature.
I
like
planting
a
lot
of
trees
in
and
around
my
house
and
I
also
try
to
save
water
wherever
I
can.
I
have
felt
proud
of
my
country
at
every
moment
of
my
life
and
I
believe
that
one
does
not
need
a
special
occasion
or
a
moment
to
feel
proud,
it’s
in
my
blood
and
I
am
proud
to
be
an
Indian.”
Siddhanth
Vir
Surryavanshi
who
plays
Kuldeep
in
Kyun
Rishton
Mein
Katti
Batti
said,
“I
feel
proud
of
our
country's
democracy
as
well
as
the
opportunities
that
our
country
provides
to
its
citizens.
Every
time
we
have
elections,
we
get
to
choose
our
Government,
whether
it
is
for
our
state
or
the
country.
A
lot
of
countries
don't
give
their
citizens
such
an
opportunity.
Also,
the
peacefully
conducted
election
in
India
proves
to
the
world
that
in
spite
of
such
a
vast
diversity
in
our
country,
we
can
smoothly
conduct
elections
without
any
hiccups.
This
really
makes
me
proud.”
Shrashti
Maheshwari
who
plays
the
character
of
Avni
in
Tujhse
Hai
Raabta
said,
“The
fundamental
rights
that
I
sincerely
follow
are
Right
to
Equality
and
right
to
freedom.
I
strongly
believe
that
a
d
difference
between
a
girl
and
a
boy
must
not
limit
anyone
to
freely
speak
or
express
themselves.
A
person
is
not
defined
by
their
gender
but
by
their
will
to
achieve
all
that
they
wish
in
life.
I
clearly
remember
the
one
moment
when
I
felt
really
proud
to
be
an
Indian
was
when
I
became
NCC
sergeant
from
NCC
cadet
and
won
the
best
commanding
officer
of
NCC
in
2012.
When
they
were
giving
me
the
badges
for
the
best
commanding
officer,
my
parents
were
also
present
there
and
it
was
a
proud
moment
for
both
of
us.
I
also
feel
proud
to
be
an
Indian
because
of
the
vast
culture
in
India
and
that
culture
can
be
carried
from
generation
to
generation.
Given
a
choice,
I
wouldn’t
want
to
leave
this
country.”
Amandeep
Sidhu
who
plays
the
character
of
Mahi
in
Teri
Meri
Ikk
Jindri
said,
“I
remember
when
I
was
back
in
school,
I
used
to
always
perform
in
the
special
Republic
Day
dances
that
would
happen
on
this
day.
It
was
a
yearly
fixed
routine,
and
it
was
one
of
the
things
that
I
used
to
eagerly
look
forward
to,
performing
in
front
of
a
large
crowd
and
we
used
to
begin
rehearsals
nearly
a
month
before
for
this.
It’s
much
later
in
life
that
I
began
watching
the
parade
on
television
with
my
parents
and
developed
a
different
importance
and
meaning
for
this
day.
As
we
celebrate
yet
another
Republic
Day,
I
truly
hope
our
nation
only
progresses
from
hereon
and
here’s
wishing
each
one
of
our
viewers
a
very
Happy
Republic
Day.”
Adhvik
Mahajan
who
plays
the
character
of
Jogi
in
Teri
Meri
Ikk
Jindri
said,
“The
most
innocent
and
adorable
childhood
memory
I
have
of
Republic
Day
is
of
the
flag
hoisting
that
used
to
happen
in
our
societies.
Back
when
we
were
kids,
I
remember
we
used
to
love
standing
under
the
flag
as
we
would
wait
for
the
flower
petals
to
fall
on
us
and
we
would
try
catching
them
in
our
palms.
It’s
only
much
later
that
we
began
learning
and
understanding
the
true
meaning
and
importance
of
this
day.
Every
Republic
Day
celebration
has
been
the
same
where
I
have
spent
time
watching
the
parade
with
my
family
and
this
year
too,
I
plan
to
continue
this
tradition.
I
would
like
to
wish
all
the
citizens
of
India
a
very
Happy
Republic
Day
and
I
hope
they
feel
proud
of
being
an
Indian
in
the
same
way
that
I
do.”
Tannaz
Irani
who
plays
the
character
of
Rajeshwari
in
Apna
Time
Bhi
Aayega
said,
“I
remember
back
in
college,
we
had
a
huge
Republic
Day
party
and
had
to
dress
up
in
the
National
flag
colours
and
had
to
carry
food
from
each
of
our
houses.
On
that
day,
I
remember
making
a
tri-coloured
pulao
which
everyone
loved
eating
and
we
also
celebrated
with
unique
tri-coloured
non-alcoholic
drinks
as
a
part
of
the
party.
I
think
this
was
one
Republic
Day
which
however
unusual
was
very
memorable
and
till
date
I
clearly
remember
how
we
were
after
our
parents
to
give
us
money
to
purchase
things
of
the
Indian
flag’s
colour.
Where
this
day
is
concerned,
I
often
feel
the
value
and
importance
that
people
have
for
Republic
Day
just
gets
completely
washed
out
because
of
Independence
Day.
Most
Indians
don’t
even
know
what
Republic
Day
is
celebrated
for
and
forget
that
it
was
the
day
our
constitution
was
formed.
This
is
a
teaching
that
I
am
currently
enforcing
amongst
my
children
and
I
hope
many
others
also
realize
the
value
this
day
holds
in
Indian
history.
Here’s
wishing
everyone
a
very
Happy
Republic
Day.”
Pooja
Banerjee
who
plays
the
role
of
Rhea
in
Kumkum
Bhagya
mentioned,
"I
am
a
proud
Indian
and
I
love
celebrating
Republic
Day
every
year.
In
fact,
I
have
many
memories
from
my
childhood,
but
the
most
special
one
is
seeing
my
cousin
sister,
Ruchira
Chatterjee,
leading
her
contingent
at
the
Republic
Day
parade.
She
was
the
first
woman
RPF
officer
to
lead
the
parade
and
as
kids,
we
used
to
look
up
to
her.
We
all
were
very
proud
seeing
her
walk
at
the
Republic
Day
parade
with
a
sword
in
her
hand
and
even
now,
I
do
watch
the
parade
whenever
possible.
I
feel
really
proud
of
my
country
and
this
Republic
Day,
I
feel
everyone
should
be
proud
being
Indians
first
and
we
should
raise
a
voice
against
whoever
tries
to
tarnish
the
image
of
our
nation,
even
if
it’s
our
friends.
As
a
country,
we
should
also
understand
the
true
meaning
of
secularism,
as
we
have
started
being
intolerant
over
the
past
few
years.
Let
us
unite
together
and
work
for
the
betterment
of
the
country."
Sanjay
Gagnani
who
plays
the
role
of
Prithvi
in
Zee
TV’s
Kundali
Bhagya
mentioned,
"Ever
since
I
was
a
kid,
Republic
Day
has
always
made
my
heart
swell
with
pride.
After
all,
it
was
the
day,
when
we
used
to
see
the
Republic
Day
Parade,
go
for
the
flag
hoisting,
sing
patriotic
songs
and
watch
patriotic
movies.
I
have
celebrated
this
day
with
great
pride
and
enthusiasm
every
year
and
this
year
is
going
to
be
the
same.
I
must
also
say
that
we
should
also
salute
our
soldiers
on
the
borders
who
are
fighting
every
day
to
protect
us
so
that
we
feel
safe
and
secure
at
home
and
also
all
the
lawmakers
who
have
ensured
that
every
citizen
feels
that
they
are
a
part
of
this
amazing
democratic
nation."
